Christ Also Suffered

 

When we do good
yet suffer

and take it
patiently

we honor Him
who always judges

His children
righteously.

“But when you do good and suffer, if you take it patiently, this is commendable before God.”

“For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that you should follow His steps:

“Who committed no sin,
Nor was deceit found in His mouth”;

“who, when He was reviled, did not revile in return; when He suffered, He did not threaten, but committed Himself to Him who judges righteously . . .”

1 Peter 2:20,21,22,23. NKJV
